ECZEMA

Thursday, December 10, 2009

This condition is an allergic reaction that produces itching, swelling, blistering, oozing, and scaling of the skin. It is more common among children than among adults, and may sometimes cover the entire body, although the rash is usually limited to the face, neck, and the folds of the knees and elbows. Unlike contact dermatitis, it is likely to be caused by an allergy to a food or pollens or dust. Advertised cures for eczema cannot control the cause and sometimes make the condition worse.
